No weight was published for the plant debris or the marijuana, only that the amount was small, so the amount of 2026-11-02 cannot be expressed in kilograms.
The police did not publish who the man is, his age, his nationality details beyond Romanian citizenship, or where in the town he was stopped.
It is not stated whether the plant debris and the marijuana named are the same find, or whether the THC-positive test reflects that find or earlier use.
No charge, court ruling or outcome of the criminal case was reported; the only step published is that he was questioned as a suspect.
A separate stop's property offence is mentioned only to explain why officers approached him, and is not part of the cannabis figures.
